Fig. 5. Demyelination is reduced in the spinal cord of mice treated with 11C7.

Fig. 5

Myelin was examined in the cervical, thoracic and lumbar segments on transverse sections of spinal cords stained with LFB-PAS, 30 days after MOG-induced EAE. A LFB-PAS stainings revealed a predominant demyelination in the lumbar spinal cord of mice treated with control IgG. In contrast, LFB-free areas were smaller in mice treated with 11C7. B Quantitatively, the % of demyelination was statistically lower in the lumbar spinal cord of mice receiving 11C7 than in control littermates (*P < 0.05; NS not significant). C The % of demyelination in lumbar spinal cord correlated with the EAE clinical scores of control IgG-injected mice (Pearson r = 0.9635; **P < 0.01). For quantitative analysis, three sections were used per animal in each segment, as shown in the top cartoon. Scale bars: A = 500 μm, close-ups= 200 μm.
